marks the start of four more years in the white house by taking the oath of office in the second time. >> in a bit of coincidence the first african american president begins his second term on the same day the nation pauses to remember civil rights legend and icon dr. martin luther king jr.. two men, two very different dreams forever linked. it is monday january 21st inauguration day and good morning. thank you for joining fox 5 special coverage. i'm allison seymour. >> i'm tony perkins. we are broadcasting from our temporary fox 5 studios high atop the canadian embassy. it's a beautiful building and a beautiful view. we are blocks from where all the accident gets underway. we will bring it all to you live all morning long as

we mentioned earlier. this is president obama's 4th oath of office. he took his third yesterday. we'll show you a little bit of that. >> chief justice john roberts administered the oath. the president has two swearing in ceremonies because inauguration day fell yesterday. he had two of the first time around because he and justice roberts flood their lines during the public ceremony. >> vice president joe biden was also sworn in yesterday morning just as he administered his oath at the naval observatory. >> today's oaths will take place just before the noon hour. there's plenty happening before then. we have crews all around

town covering every facet of today's celebration from the swearing in to the crowds, to the parade to the pictures you are sharing online. we're going to check in with all of them in a few minutes. >> we know thousands will head down to the national mall. if you haven't left already, you are going to need to know how to dress. it is chilly here. the breeze is blowing . tucker barnes, tell the folks how many layers they are going to need if they are going to head down here. >> maybe you should tell them how many layers you are wearing. think about layers here. very cold to start your day. we should warmup into the low to mid 40s and the bottom will drop out late this afternoon and tonight. after that parade ends later this afternoon. we're going to be in for coldest air around here. so real cold on the move. let's get to your numbers. 33 right now at reagan

national. 32 in annapolis. 30 out at dulles . manassas 30. you might have noticed the sun, comes up at 7:22 right behind tony and allison. a beautiful view. we're going to see the clouds win out. it will be mostly cloudy this afternoon. and that will put a damper on those temperatures. and then into the late afternoon, this arctic front will come hard charging down through the area. could bring us a snow hour. and the real cold here to stay for the remainder of the week. 45 today for a brief period of time. could be a late day snow shower. winds out of the south will be shifting at about 15 to 20 miles per hour. that's a look at weather, tony and allison, back to you guys. >> thank you so much. you know how to dress. now, you need to know how to get here.

>> that's right. karen gray houston is keeping track what's happening with metro. she's near the gallery place station with more on your commute downtown. hey, karen. >> reporter: hi , tony and allison. metro is definitely the way to go. we are at the yellow line gallery street stop. if you can take a look, we're seeing a lot of people getting off that line and walking to the mall. they are avoiding the streets to clear the way for the parade later. the national guard has humvees over here to keep the traffic away in chinatown. short time ago we ran into girl scouts who were headed to the inauguration. >> we're helping out with the inauguration. >> how are you helping? >> i don't know. we're at the

parade route. >> does anybody know what you are doing? >> we won't know until we get there exactly what we're doing. we know we have a zone and working the parade route but don't know what we're doing yet. >> are you warm enough? >> yeah. >> not that cold out here? >> we just got off the metro. >> are you going to walk to the mall? >> i guess so. >> you guys get a plan. >> reporter: by the way, metro is open until 2:00 tomorrow morning. it opened early today around 4:00 a.m. peak fairs are from 4 to 9 a.m. normal weekday parking rates are in affect. if you are leaving your car, parking fees will be charged when you exit. three metro stations are going to be closed during the activities today. archives, mount vernon square

and smithsonian. all closed today. and one thing you may have noticed, very visible police presence, 150 police officers from out of town were deputized yesterday. they are going to be helping out the metro transit police. live at gallery place, karen gray houston, fox 5 news, back to tony and allison. >> thank you so much. >> all right. now we want to check in with julie wright. she has the latest road closures and the situation with the parking lots. >> good morning. this is a live picture from the crew in sky fox over the greenbelt metro. strongly encouraging everyone to take metro. this lot about 40, 45% full. that's what we're noticing. the crew

was over the new carrollton stop. a lot of folks are taking metro. but it's going to be difficult for you to get a parking. get there now because we want you to get a place to park. so again, a lot of people making their way into that stop at this time. all right, downtown, a number of our streets across the mall remain closed off at this time. this happens to be the camera shot at 7th and e. there are police out there to help direct traffic but the buses are helping drop off folks. that's going to be what we're finding downtown. 14th street bridge, traffic being diverted. still open but either to the white hurts freeway or pennsylvania avenue. that's a check of your fox 5 on time traffic. >> thanks, julie. of course, the focal point will be the

capitol building, that's where the ceremonies will take place. the swearing in of the president and vice president and the like. >> tom is there and he has a front row seat to history. >> reporter: good morning. i'm not sure if i'm quite front row. we're at the top of a very cold riser this morning. but a collective cheer went up among the folks this morning as we saw that first beautiful sunrise as we start to peak over the capitol. it is a stunning site no matter how many times you look at the capitol building. almost like a giant national birthday cake is quite a scene. we'll show you exactly what's been going on. the finishing touches they've been working on. only about two hours ago they started setting up the final amount of chairs. that red curtain you see there leads into an area of the capitol known as

the crip. that is the door where where all the dignataries will be coming out. president obama will not southbound to step through until 11:20 and down to the wider area. each and every one of those chairs you see there has been affixed with a placard that will correspond to a dignitary. we spoke briefly with new freshman senator gym kerry. he is going to be amongst the crowd with his wife. none of these chairs were here two hours only. only started putting them out at about 5:00 this morning. probably because they wanted to make sure any weather concerns did not cause

any problems as far as getting all that out. you can see the staff is businessly making their way around this area trying to make sure everything corresponds to where it is supposed to be. there's one thing about this inauguration it is timed to the second and everything you see here today is not going to be an accident. inaugurals are preplanned weeks and months in advance. we are going to see the execution today for a plan in the works for many, many weeks over the past couple months. send it back to you tony and allison. >> thank you very much. >> really in some respects this day is starting off pretty routine for the first family, they are waking up in the white house and already learned the ins and outs of living in the executive mansion now for the past four years. >> in a little while, the special events will begin. the first time we will see the first

family will be as they emerge from the white house. >> sarah simmons has our coverage from that vantage point and she joins us now overlooking the parade reviewing stand at lafayette park. sarah, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, tony and allison. definitely a chilly start to the day. we've seen officers gathering security getting ready for the events that will happen today. some of the cleaning crews are out here wiping off the glass here at the reviewing stand. under a couple hours from now the first family will emerge and leave the white house and head just around the corner from here diagonal or right across from lafayette square to saint john's church where that will attend a worship service there. very big tradition and also worship there

on inauguration day. george w bush as well. somewhat of a tradition that started back many, many years ago. after that they will proceed back here to the white house. scheduled to be a tea with the joint congressional committee. after that, they will head to the capitol. the first lady along with the president and families will be going up to the capitol. they will be seated right before the swearing in ceremony which is expected to happen before noon. tom will be covering that for us up there. that's the latest here so far. check back in with you in a little bit. >> great shot, sarah. looks good. thank you very much . >> thousands of people have began lining both sides of pennsylvania avenue. they are ready to watch the president walk from the capitol back to the white house. >> coming up, i don't know if he's going to walk but we'll find out later on.

and show that support from hollywood onward. >> you've looked at this historically over the many many years. and a lot of this started in terms of hollywood coming to washington for the inaugural festivities. i want to ask you a question. there seems to be the feeling or belief that when a democratic president is being inaugurated, you get more celebrities than when a republican president is being inaugurated. is that true? >> it's a different kind of people supporting each of these parties. there were some people who told me if president obama lost that the first week of sun dance would be much better. >> cause all the stars would still be there. >> certainly, you've seen some people say i have to come back from utah and be here for the swearing in.

julie wright, what's up? >> a lot of traffic is what we're talking about today and how you can get to downtown. that would be by using metro. metro's orange line, trains are running in 4 minute intervals. it's fast and sufficient and plenty of people to assist you. sky fox is headed over towards the springfield metro stop. and again, we're starting to see people line up as they make their way over and continue into downtown. allow extra time. the end of the line stations are 70% full. let's go on live to our cameras. driving is not an option for you. a lot of streets that are blocked off. buses are dropping off a lot of pedestrians. again, the roosevelt bridge traffic open diverted over to the white hurst freeway. 14th street denied access. instead taken over to

[ male announcer ] this is bob,

a regular guy with an irregular heartbeat. the usual, bob? not today. [ male announcer ] bob has afib: atrial fibrillation not caused by a heart valve problem, a condition that puts him at greater risk for a stroke. [ gps ] turn left. i don't think so. [ male announcer ] for years, bob took warfarin, and made a monthly trip to the clinic to get his blood tested. but not anymore. bob's doctor recommended a different option: once-a-day xarelto®. xarelto® is the first and only once-a-day prescription blood thinner for patients with afib not caused by a heart valve problem, that doesn't require routine blood monitoring. like warfarin, xarelto® is proven effective to reduce the risk of an afib-related stroke.

there is limited data on how these drugs compare when warfarin is well managed. no routine blood monitoring means bob can spend his extra time however he likes. new zealand! xarelto® is just one pill a day, taken with the evening meal. and with no dietary restrictions, bob can eat the healthy foods he likes. do not stop taking xarelto® rivaroxaban without talking to the doctor who prescribes it for you. stopping may increase your risk of having a stroke. get medical help right away if you develop any signs or symptoms of bleeding, like unusual bruising or tingling. you may have a higher risk of bleeding if you take xarelto® with aspirin products, nsaids or blood thinners. talk to your doctor before taking xarelto® if you currently have abnormal bleeding. xarelto® can cause bleeding, which can be serious, and rarely may lead to death. you are likely to bruise more easily on xarelto®, and it may take longer for bleeding to stop. tell your doctors you are taking xarelto® before any planned medical or dental procedures. before starting xarelto®, tell your doctor

about any conditions, such as kidney, liver or bleeding problems. ready to change your routine? ask your doctor about once-a-day xarelto®. for more information including cost support options, call 1-888-xarelto or visit goxarelto.com. welcome back to fox 5 morning news special coverage of the 57th presidential inauguration. don't expect any election gloating or policy. the white house says president obama's address is designed to strike a hopeful tone. advisors say the speech will build upon the one election night. reminding our country our founding principles can still guide us in a changing world. we welcome you back now to our temporary fox 5 studios high

something president obama did last time around as well. and it's something that really was a tradition that started with fdr and four other presidents have decided to make that tradition including president obama on inauguration day. it has a long history of presidents visiting that at some point during their term in oval office. after that, then their schedule indicates back to the white house for tea with a group from the joint congressional committee on inaugural ceremonies. they will head after that to the capitol where they will prepare for the swearing in ceremony. tom fitzgerald will be on that. then back down here to the white house where they will seat in the reviewing stand and review as the parade comes by.

just a beautiful day for it. except for the temperatures. not as bad as it was four years ago. just a little breeze. as we take a look at the flag just blowing ever so slightly. a little bit breezy and chilly but nothing we can't handle after four years ago. tony and allison, back to you. >> not as cold as it was four years ago. coming up in just a little bit -- thank you, sarah. the president opens up on what he calls the most significant event for inaugural weekend. but first, charm city heads to the cresant city. the that and more when we check in with melanie alnwick. she's covering today's other big stories. 8:22. we'll be right back.

♪ here's a live look this morning at the national mall as people have already begun to assemble to witness the second inauguration of president barack obama. the president will be sworn in for the second time just before noon today. he was officially sworn in as required by law yesterday just before noon. but today will be the public swearing in. >> not the same crowds that we saw four years ago. but don't tell that to the folks already gathered. quite many people out there this morning to witness

history. today's inauguration is full of meaning on many levels and none more significant than the fact that today is the federal holiday honoring the life and the legacy of dr. martin luther king jr.. his legacy was honored yesterday with the laying of two wreaths at the memorial dedicated to his memory. along with dr. king's family, even hollywood were all there. al sharp ton, jesse jackson, jamie foxx. just some of the big names in attendance. and welcome back. we're happy will be to be with you in our 8:00 hour. we're joining you live high on top the canadian embassy on pennsylvania avenue. and we're a little more than three hours away from the pomp and pageantry. >> we do want to thank our hosts for having us here this morning. we're going to have

more on the parade and inauguration festivities. first, let's get the all important forecast from tucker barnes. >> a cool start to your day. temperatures falling back in the upper 20s and low 30s. it will be a decent day with the highs in the low to mid 40s. and the real cold stuff gets in here later tonight. reagan national right now i don't want to say jumped. it has reached 33. 32 this morning in leonard town. 20s north and west . 28 this morning in gaithersburg. all right. that's a quick look at weather and back to you guys out at the canadian embassy. >> thank you so much, tucker. we are going to take a live look at the white house where we are expecting to see the first family emerge from the white house of course on their way to

the ceremonies, if you will. the spiritual ceremonies at saint john's church. we are expecting the president and the first family to arrive shortly afterwards. that church right next to the white house. this is a longstanding tradition and the president obama for his second inauguration will follow suit and he will go to saint john's to start this morning off with a spiritual ceremony. >> as you say, it's a longstanding tradition. virtually, every president has started their inauguration day to some church. president obama did attend this church the last time around as did president george w bush. and perhaps george h.w. bush as well. this is something going on for many years. fdr actually began the

tradition of visiting saint john's church on inauguration day. four other presidents have worshipped there. >> from research and getting research together, we have learned saint john's offers a standing invitation. pew 54, it's reserved for the commander-in-chief whenever he so desires to worship there. and they have kneelerers embroidered there. >> in just a moment we should see the first family emerge for what is a relatively brief service that will take place at the church. >> sarah simmons is there now and there you see president

barack obama exiting the limo. first lady michelle obama right by his side. >> stopping to have pictures taken. there are the first daughters. >> sash a&m alia. and mom in law. >> the first mom in law, if you will. >> quite a different picture. we've seen the girls virtually grow up. >> two things strike me. the girls. one way for any family you can really gauge how things change from year to year. many people have commented the president has more gray hair than he did four years ago. >> and people are talking about the hair on the first lady. sporting a new do there with the bangs. the family entering saint john's church.

>> we mentioned him earlier. he's going to give the benediction later on. >> let's head over to sarah simmons. that's the moment we were waiting for to kick off today's inauguration. >> reporter: that's right. certainly is. a brief ride. we saw them leaving over here from the white house. a very short ride to go over there to saint john's church. a very strong standing tradition. it's a relatively short service. they will be there the president sitting in his normal seat that is set aside pew 54 for the president and his family. they will be there and then after that, they will move back over to the white house briefly where they will be entertaining folks from the joint congressional committee on the inauguration ceremonies. for now, this is their time to reflect and look

forward on the day, what a ceremony it will be. and a very big day as well. the inauguration day, the public ceremony falling on what is martin luther king jr.. they'll be thinking much about that as well. and reverend lewis leon will also be involved later in the day as well for the public swearing in. he will be giving the benediction during that. heavily involved throughout the

day for the different ceremonies taking place. now the first family inside the church there will head back here in about an hour or so. and they will continue on with the day's festivities and head up to the capitol for the swearing in. >> i believe we're waiting for the vice president to exit the second limo. we want to stay with this picture for a moment until we see joe biden. the profile of the profile has been right front and center dealing with many key issues of the beginning of this new term. so we have seen a lot more, a highly visible joe biden. >> it does beg the question will that continue to be the case through the second term. the president's second term frequently quite different from a first term. also been some indications president obama will be more assertive. there is the vice president and dr. jill biden as they emerge. and they will also head into saint john's. we mentioned the popularity this church with president obama, vice president biden. the bushes, president george w and george hw attending service

here. notably, president clinton broke with that tradition and attended the metropolitan a and e. >> joe biden being greeted by the father there. the crowds that we can hear cheering the vice president on as they enter the church. they should be there for a little over an hour. things rolling right on time, tony. seems to me that limo pulled up. >> they want to keep things on schedule. tom fitzgerald are at the capitol. we begin with the arrival of the president and vice president this morning. >> tony, just a moment, you were talking about the rolls vice president biden played in this administration. it was no accident in 2008 when president obama selected then senator joe

biden to be his running mate. you'll remember it served in the senate for 38 years. at the time he won the democrat national nomination. barack obama only served the united states senate for only two. joe biden is an old hand at what goes on here. and you have seen that played out over and over again over these past four years. the vice president put in charge with republicans on the debt ceiling and brought in most recently for these 24 proposals that have been put forward on the gun control. and the vice president brokered that last minute deal being avoided at the end of the year. when you look at the obama presidency and four years from now when this history is going to be written, vice president joe biden is going to fill a roll in that history that is particular to him and larger than any other

vice president we have seen before. really reinvented the vice president before that, they did not have all that much to do besides check on the health of the president. but really, the modern era now we've seen this change from administration to administration and clearly vice president joe biden at this point has demonstrated the height of that, the political confident and advisor and foot soldier with house republicans here who have said they have major problems with a lot of the things this administration is laying out. >> tom is live right there front row seat for the swearing in ceremony at the capitol. thank you. >> all right. the church service the vice president and

president are attending will last about an hour. a lot more coverage of the 57th presidential inauguration straight ahead. stay with us for this special edition. we will be right back. it's 8:42.
